Joy Taylor previews the 2028 World Cup kickoff in North America, noting Mexico opens Thursday and the USMNT plays Paraguay Friday, while discussing muted hype due to political/cultural issues and high ticket costs, though she expects excitement to build once matches start; she highlights the expanded 48-team field and calls the current U.S. men’s squad the most international yet, hoping they can approach the women’s team’s standard. Taylor then recaps Caitlin Clark’s game-winning three for the Indiana Fever over the Mystics and praises the WNBA’s broader slate of storylines, while acknowledging Clark’s controversy, fanbase, and referee-related critiques. She closes with Victor Wembanyama leading the Spurs to their first NBA Finals win in Game 3 versus the Knicks, embracing a New York villain narrative and fueling a physical, trash-talking rivalry.
